fridays with oscar

talbots distressed shorts, j.crew graphic tee, tretorn sneakers

there’s more than one thunderstorm that ripped through town the past few days. can you say stormy weather? ‘cuz that’s been the status quo around here. oscar and i managed to dodge the raindrops and squeezed in a walk. high five’s to once around the block!

actually, the storms blew in milder temps so i won’t complain. and there was a beautiful breeze to boot which is always welcome this time of year. but my ootd is on the casual side with distressed shorts from Talbots, a graphic tee from J.Crew, and a comfy pair of sneakers from Land’s End. Talbots is holding their bi-annual red hangar sale, so i know these shorts (along with lots of other items) are going for a song. J.Crew and Land’s End also has terrific sales going this weekend. anyone remember the days when there was only one summer sale that started after the fourth of july? my how retail has changed.

there’s always more than one stick to choose from after a thunderstorm blows them to the ground. sometimes, oscar can’t decide which stick is better.

    Love the jean dress and am looking for one like it. Sadly, it is no longer available. I have those cute flowered pants. Love how you style them with the graphic T-shirt!

    Looks like a real heatwave is on its way for almost all of us over the next week. You and Oscar are smart to get your walk out of the way between raindrops–and you did get some storms, didn’t you! You both look terrific, and Ollie looks happy to be waiting on your return home. Have a great weekend!
